Possible undiscovered planet in our solar system

[hecube]

Some of you may have heard about a possible still undiscovered planet (read this: Astronomers say a Neptune-sized planet lurks beyond Pluto | Science | AAAS)

What name do you think would be appropriate if the planet is actually found?

I looked up what roman gods were left unused for planet-naming and one struck me as perfect: Janus

From wikipedia:

is the god of beginnings, gates, transitions, time, doorways, passages, and endings

Janus is at the origin of time as the guardian of the gates of Heaven

Nibiru. We've known about it for years. Jeez.

Orcus, cause it's way the hell out there

Janus should learn from Uranus' mistakes. Don't put anus in your name or no one will take you seriously.

Orcus, cause it's way the hell out there

Ocrus is already taken.

we find more orbiting bodies as time goes on. i expect that will not change in our lifetime.

But does it have oil?

Bob. It's short, to the point, easy to say and has the benefit of being a palindrome. Efficient and time saving in this day and age of text messaging and things of this nature.

X. Much like Bob, but more so. Also we would be used to the name because of all the science fiction movies using that appellation.

Houdini. It remained hidden, until this dramatic entrance!

Xerxes. No reason, just sounds cool.

Thanks for the heads up!
Guess I can wait a bit to sell all my stuff and spend all my savings on booze and cheap whores

But does it have oil?

I think the politically correct way to ask that is "Do we need to spread democracy there?"

Planet Lolcat


No wait. 'Eurydice'. Cause Pluto.

Planet Lolcat

only if there is a good reason to name it that.


take pluto for example. it's pretty simple to see how it got it's name.

I just wish something major would happen for once...I stopped watching conspiracy theories because nothing ever happens -I mean not in yer face abrupt, like possibly this planet X. For years a alternative theory type thing scientists dismissed. Now what?, scientists are considering it?, f**k them, buncha a**holes.

Planet "incognito"?

Then I'm confused about where it says "If Uranus is irregular, it could be influenced a Big Brownie"???

 

[Meatwad]

If it's behind Uranus, they should call it Jared.
